You are interested in the training capabilities of TCX Course or FIT Course files, meaning, you want to export a route with a set speed, and you want to get alerts when you go above or below that speed.This allows you to get alerts when you approach your custom cues, while still using the fancy navigation capabilities of your GPS unit. Using a TCX Course or FIT Course file will still allow your GPS unit to have the fancy turn guidance you get when you have a quality map installed on the GPS, however you will also get the simple beep/icon style navigation of the TCX. Your GPS unit has fancy maps installed, but you have custom cue entries like water and food stops.That’s fine for most people, since it’s just a reference – most of the time you have an idea of where you are going and just need an auditory beep to make sure you don’t accidentally pass a turn. Often, the beep you get with the very simplistic turn by turn directions of a TCX Course or Fit Course file occurs as you are in the middle of the intersection, meaning it doesn’t happen in advance of the turn.Garmin’s are limited to 10 characters, so we attempt to strip out irrelevant text from the cue, leaving just the street name if possible. An abbreviated 10 character description of the cue will also appear. When you come close to the cuesheet entry, your Edge will beep and an arrow icon will appear on the map.
